We've been formed because we want a much higher profile so that backroom deals don't govern how this golf course is used. What's been going on with this golf course is like what happened with the pension scandal. This is a bunch of people who think they own the city and don't think the law applies to them. They don't think they're responsible to the community, and they think we're going to roll over.
